This whole thing is so very sad. For decades we held this man in high regard, almost aa a saint. SAAC made sure that the cars he built were properly recorded and documented in their registry. After many years, our hero found some frames that he claimed to be original dating back to the 60's so he could produce a few more original Cobras. Then the law suits began against anyone and it appeared everyone that crossed the man's path.
Now Mr. $helby has decided that the $helby enthusiast would be better off without SAAC. SAAC are expected to turn over all information dealing with Cobras and $helby Mustangs whether or not it came from Shelby in the first place. They cannot use any of a long list of names and/or words, etc, etc. $helby has even applied to register the name SAAC. This sounds like one thing to me, and that is that $helby has decided to squash SAAC.
Anyone wanting to bet that more frames are already being lined up ready to be discovered?
I find it very sad indeed that my automotive hero appears to be turning into a greedy old man.
